Hi
I want a silent machine to run xbmc, to play a mix of sd, 720p & some 1080p content in assorted formats, mostly h264, and xvid. This to be connected by hdmi to a 720p tv, with all the files on a NAS connected by Ethernet.
I would prefer to run xbmc under some flavour of Linux, rather than windows. Which of the following is likely to perform better?
Shuttle XS35GT v2
Shuttle XS35GS V3
TIA for your help.
